re: Directv or u-verse?

I have had both in recent years.

Was forced into COX all of college because I lived in apartments and could never get DirectTV, and UVerse wasn't out yet.

Moved into a place after college that offered UVerse in the area. I started to worship Uverse because of how quick it was and how simple it looked. I loved pretty much all the features. And it was cheap for all the stuff you got.

Moved into my own house and they didn't offer UVerse so had to go with DirectTV. Got the Red Zone package for free this past year, so that was awesome. Also I get great deals on stuff offered all the time, and if you refer people, you get $50 bucks off your bill (or maybe more).

For the cost and good product, DirectTV is a safe bet. But if Uverse was offered in my neighborhood, I would probably switch back just for the wireless box. That might sell me if I were you.

Did I mention COX is horrible?
